[Bug 1589605] Re: evolution-calendar-factory uses lots of memory

2016-06-07 Thread Eric Broneer
Hi @seb128 ,
I have tried disabling my three online Google accounts and the subprocess 
disappears altogether. As soon as I re-enable one account with few Google 
Agenda items, it comes back with ~ 50 Mio. When I enable the main account that 
has a good many Google Agenda items, the subprocess starts to happily eat away 
at its 300+ Mio.
So the obvious workaround now is to disable GMail and Calendar synchronization 
in System parameters/Online accounts (see attached screenshot).
Concerning the putative memory leak (the subprocess does indeed eat away at 
more and more memory as time goes by), this would include compiling 
evolution-calendar-factory-subprocess with MemCheck, wouldn't it? I would need 
the compile options and other things I'm not very familiar with…  :/

[Bug 1589605] [NEW] evolution-calendar-factory uses lots of memory

2016-06-06 Thread Eric Broneer
Public bug reported:

As filed under bug #1342123 (under Canonical System Image, i.e. for mobile 
installs) by several users, including desktop installs, 
evolution-calendar-factory (previsouly in 14.04) then 
evolution-calendar-factory-subprocess (in 16.04) run using several hundreds of 
megabytes of memory (~ 300 Mio in my case).
This might have to do with having lots of linked calendars (Google Agenda or 
other). Another user on my system has much fewer Google Agendas than me and her 
memory usage of evolution-calendar-factory-subprocess is less, but still close 
to 100 Mio.
There have been random crashes of the process, mostly directly upon login, 
always caused by addressing memory out of range.
There used to be a workaround by invoking the process a second time, which 
caused it to exit more or less gracefully. This is not the case anymore in 
16.04.
Unfortunately, searching Google leads to the bug #1342123 which concerns 
"Canonical System Image", and several users have replied even though it does 
not only concern mobile installs, which is not immediately self-evident when 
you are not aware what "Canonical System Image" stands for…

@ogra Thanks, I wasn't at all aware that "Canonical System Image" was about 
*mobile* systems. Maybe a more straightforward name would help…  :)
I'll go look if this bug has already been filed under desktop installs.

Plus, the nice little workaround does not seem to function in 16.04.
Simply re-invoking the process does not lead to it exiting. I've seen it
crash several times in a row with no obvious pattern to it (except it
happens fairly soon after login).

2016-06-06 Thread Eric Broneer
Still a major memory hog in 16.04 with a clean install (except for /home 
obviously).
The process has changed names and is now dubbed 
"evolution-calendar-factory-subprocess" but its behavior has not changed. After 
a couple of minutes, memory usage is up to ~300 Mio, which is a bit steep for 
something that's not even wanted…

[Bug 1563706] Re: Left click not working in workspace only

2016-03-31 Thread Eric Broneer
@penalvch
OK, tried running the latest daily-live xenial. Tried opening several Firefox 
windows and tabs with my Google Drive documents and other windows. No problem 
after more than 30 minutes working. Suspend mode didn't cause the bug on 
xenial. I couldn't try hibernate, of course, since I'm on a live USB stick.
However, I can't tell if it would cause the same problem with all my personal 
parameters set as they are now.
So far, so good. I'll let you know if I can reproduce the bug.

[Bug 1316873] Re: Left mouse button stops working

2016-03-24 Thread Eric Broneer
I recently switched from an HDD to an SSD. I installed a fresh Ubuntu
14.04.4 on the SSD. Everything works just fine, except the left button
randomly stops working *only in the work space*. It responds in opened
applications, just not on the top bar or the left application launch
bar. Right click and scroll work fine.

Silly but useful workaround without having to exit fully from the
session : [Ctl][Alt][L] and retype your password.

[Bug 1342123] Re: evolution-calendar-factory always running with high memory usage

2016-03-19 Thread Eric Broneer
@aj-sahagun

Works fine now. So apparently, when you want a couple of commands to be
launched one after the other in the startup list, you can't just write:

sleep 60; 

You have to explicitly call bash -c like this:

bash -c 'sleep 60; '

Good to know!

Thanks for your reply. I wasn't aware you had to explicitly call bash
when using the form "sleep 1m; ". I'll try it out.

@aj-sahagun
I have the exact same problem. Adding an autostart entry did not help, for 
reasons I do not understand. If I type it manually in a terminal, it works 
fine. If I add an autostart entry with the exact same command, nothing happens 
and evolution-calendar-factory happily nibbles away at RAM. I even tried to 
autostart with "sleep 60; /usr/lib/evolution/evolution-calendar-factory", 
unfortunately to no avail.
Am I missing something here ?

[Bug 614750] Re: stopmotion add frames reports 'You do not have permission to read that file' when path name has arabic (probably non-latin utf8) characters

2013-11-19 Thread Eric Broneer
I can't add an image from a path that contains an "é" character. In
French, the default "Video" folder is called "Vidéo". If I move the
files to a path that doesn't contain a non-ASCII character, it works.

Installing Ubuntu Network Remix (9.10) works fine when launched from the

So it is indeed hardware related.

[Bug 428632] Re: Karmic boot fails (end_request) on Targa 1016 (MSI U120 oem)

2010-01-28 Thread Eric Broneer
A workaround : install Jaunty, then upgrade to Karmic.

This of course won't work if you really want to install UNR (which I
believe doesn't exist for Jaunty), but at least SquashFS didn't spill
its guts all over me with Jaunty.

Whoever is in developing (I would love to help had I the time and
energy): something happened between Jaunty and Karmic as far as SquashFS
is concerned. On my Asus 1008HA netbook, installing or running live
8.04, 8.10 and 9.04 works fine with a USB stick, but Karmic won't go
live because of SquashFS errors.

Whatever works!

Cheers,
Eric

2010-01-22 Thread Eric Broneer
A little better, but still not working. For some strange reason, after
trying the above-mentioned commands, I get usb-creator 0.1.8 (go
figure). Anyway, using a standard i386 ISO image on my USB stick works a
little better: I get the "please wait" cursor, then the Ubuntu splash
screen. But instead of going into a session, the screen reverts to the
"please wait" cursor, then back to the splash screen, then back to the
cursor, then nothing. Ctrl-Alt-F1 shows again a bunch of SQUASHFS
errors. Again, I tried disabling AHCI, tried ide=nodma, acpi=off, etc.
Various changes happen, but it always ends up with SQUASHFS erros.

To sum things up: usb-creator 0.1.8 gets a little further than the
standard Karmic version, but we don't get a session going.

2010-01-21 Thread Eric Broneer
After looking around, I have found what may be a workaround  (although I am 
unable to test it at present): the problem may come from the version of 
usb-creator in Karmic. By reverting to the 0.1.10 version, things seem to work 
for most users.
I found the information (in French) at 
http://forum.ubuntu-fr.org/viewtopic.php?id=355414
I will try this as soon as possible and comment on it. This is what I will try :

$ sudo apt-get --purge remove usb-creator-*
$ wget 
http://fr.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/u/usb-creator/usb-creator_0.1.10_all.deb
$ sudo dpkg -i usb-creator_0.1.10_all.deb

I should add that I tried removing AHCI, also tried noacpi and ide=nodma

Same here trying to boot Karmic i386 standard (not Netbook Remix) on an
Asus Eee PC 1008AH from a USB device. Everything goes fine until the
system tries to launch X, at which point SQUASHFS errors pop up followed
by end-request, I/O errors and what not. Only way to reboot is the so-
called "emergency" reboot by pressing Ctrl-Alt-PrtScrn-B.

Thank you for setting the importance to "High" as this could be a wonderful 
tool if it were reliable. As it stands, one should not rely entirely upon it. 
But I'm sure things will get better as soon as notifications are fixed.
Keep up the good work!

[Bug 303148] Re: fglrx: Multiple versions in DKMS

2008-12-11 Thread Eric Broneer
I was able to fix the issue of multiple entries of fglrx in DKMS by
following the steps in the following page: http://doc.ubuntu-
fr.org/ati.run

Basically, you delete all instances of fglrx and you re-install the ati
drivers.

Exact same problem here with Intrepid while updating to kernel
2.6.27-9-generic 64 bits on an Acer computer with an Athlon64/Opteron
and an ATI RS690 [Radeon X1200 Series] graphics card.

Since the update, Ubuntu us functioning in low graphics mode. fglrxinfo
reports "BadRequest".

I unfortunately do not know where I can find the error message that
appeared during the update as posted above in the initial message by
toffyrn, but I recall it was the same : "Multiple versions in DKMS.
Unsure what to do. Resolve manually."

Attached is the output result from ls -alR /var/lib/dkms
